Description

Today's undergraduate students receiving degrees in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) fields have numerous opportunities and a multitude of decisions to make regarding the development of a successful career. After completing four to five years of undergraduate studies, the prospect of continuing school may not be as appealing as employment; then Why Graduate School? In answering the question, "Why Graduate School?" first it is important to be aware of the changing nature of the 21st century world of work which is characterized by globalization and knowledge based economies. To be successful in today's workplace individuals will need to possess the skills and competencies that are taught and nurtured in STEM graduate programs. Second, for the United States to remain at the pinnacle of competitiveness and innovation there is a critical need for a talented workforce that is able to (1) incorporate available information, (2) create new knowledge, and (3) implement innovation. In addition, there are unique changes occurring in employment trends worldwide, particularly in STEM fields that will be increasing three times faster than other occupations. These increases are reflective of (1) the large number of workers nearing retirement, (2) worldwide competition for talented workers, and (3) the decline of students majoring in STEM.
